Is the questioning of the dead in their grave real, and do they sit in their grave and discuss?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The questioning of the deceased in their grave is real, and it is incumbent upon the believer to surrender and affirm unseen matters without asking about their nature. The soul's connection to the body after death differs from its connection during life, and it possesses affairs that humans do not comprehend, as is evident in dreams where a sleeping person witnesses significant events while on their bed. Thus, the deceased can sit in their grave and be questioned, and this is what has been authentically reported from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, and we must submit and obey.
